That would mean a) those elements don't have any element-specific
messages, or b) they're missing documentation for any they might send.

In this case, they just don't have any element-specific messages
(though xvimagesink will send a "prepare-xwindow-id" message - as
documented in the GstXOverlay interface, which it implements.
